Reviewed by dexplorer  on  9/22/2001

Title: Backstage Sluts 2
Studio: Zane
Genre: Amateur
Date shot: 1998
Length: 114 min. (That's what another database says. I didn't bother to time it. The only sex scene is about 20 min.)
Director: Matt Zane

Female Cast: Christgen Wolf [Anal Facial], Cassie [LezOnly], Sheena {LezOnly], Kelly Dean [NoSex, nude]. The rest were either in a lame three girl lezzie "warm up" (to more clothed interviews) or fully clothed: Barett Moore, Dolly Golden, Eve, Karen, Kristen, Tangerine

Male Cast: Ron Jeremy. The rest were non sex: David Hardman, Dick Nasty, Lynn Strait.

Who will like this: No one I can imagine.

Who should avoid this: Everyone.

Raincoat factor: Extremely low.

Couples factor: Low. Mostly on overall lameness. The only hardcore sex is with Ron Jeremy and has lame anal.

Synopsis: The concept is to show us what backstage sex life is really like for rock musicians, with a combination of amateurs and porn stars.

Body of Review: My purpose here (aside from getting my first review under my belt) is to warn you: DON'T DO IT! Thankfully I only rented this one. (I probably wouldn't have bothered to cover all the bases I do here if I wasn't working up and trying out my own review template, in effect.)

I couldn't find a review on the net of volume 2 in this three part series. It seems to me there's a utility in this sort of review when it's merited. I had a theory for why this might be the best of the three -- I think it was because it looked to have the most amateurs. I sure hope I was wrong about it's relative ranking. I really liked the concept of this title -- seeing a combination of some real groupies and porn stars play out some groupie stories. A more real, and hardcore, version of "Almost Famous", I hoped. But the execution …

This video, before extras, is really in three parts. The first 36 minutes consists of groupies and band members telling stories. Not even all that hot stories, at least the way they tell them. (Well there was one lezzie fisting tale, or boast, that was somewhat interesting -- lead groupie (Cassie?) tells of another really thin small girl wannabe groupie who got so crazy into being fisted and twirled around by Cassie that when she had to stop and leave with the band, the tiny crazy one started begging and demanding to come too, pounding her fists, broke things, went running down naked into the lobby after her, and tried to jump on the bus before they were just barely able to get the door closed. PCP perhaps?)

All of these groupies, aside from not being very good looking (at least the ones doing the talking), are even fully clothed all the time they're yaking. Except for thin and late teenage looking Kelly Dean (groupie and porn performer both I gather), when she stands next to David Hartman playing a band member boasting about the availability of backstage action -- in a general sort of way. She nakedly agrees it's really like that, and puts her hand in David's pants. Well there's also a short lame lezzie "warm up" scene, between groupie interviews.

The sole hardcore scene is Ron Jeremy playing a road manager, who comes upon two performers playing groupies in a hotel room (Christgen Wolf, Sheena?), waiting for some band members to arrive for a "private party". Ron, in his full ugly, very harry, middle aged pot bellied glory here, name drops and spiels his way into getting them to put on a girl-girl show for him, and then joins in, eventually for some mild anal. I guess this could have a certain lurid appeal, if you get into that sort of thing. I wonder if the girls got extra combat duty pay?

The last part beginning at 0:56 is a mediocre at best rock video of some heavy metal. I didn't set through more than a minute of it.

DVD Extras: Who cares? Nothing of value. There's an interview with director / musician Matt Zane which is so lame that it's camp funny. (Pretty female interviewer: "Why do you direct porn movies as your "day job", when you're not on the road doing music?. I mean instead of carpentry or something, like most rock guys?" Zane: "It's a way to, you know, get set up for sex with beautiful girls when I'm not, ah, with the band.")

Actually, that may be this title's high point.

DVD Audio/Visual Quality Mediocre. Lighting problems in several places. It has the look and feel of a fairly amateur effort.
